I've not been shopping actively for the past 11 or 12 months.
T/Cs of all flavors were regularly selling around $400 a couple years ago; CVA Mt Rifles,USA made, were fetching $450+.
Thought to sell a couple I simply do not shoot to partially finance a Jim Kibler kit...maybe not.
Around here in Virginia, I have never seen these high prices for a side lock or even an inline!!! These guns seem to always go for a minimal price. They only sidekicks that go for a very high price are originals!
I always considered that taking game with a sidelock was an accomplishment!!!!!
